pm bjowett from 4 stroke side. Seriously. The guy knows Ohlins as well as anyone and doesn't charge as much.


I've also dealt with Mike Carver from Carver Performance and he is excellent. He ran Yamaha's race tram for years.


Bjowett, Carver, and Pioneer are all either sponsors or paying advetisers fdor TY.

If you flip your top shock brackets upside down and switch them from side to side that will shorten the distance between your top and bottom shock mounts a bit. You'll have to do a little shimming behind the bottom bolt on your top bracket with washers but it will work.
